In Tokyo, a Dutchman and a Belgian talk about the two faces of Japan—the European (exotic, pure) idea of the country and the real country. One is a diplomat, the other a photographer. The diplomat helps the photographer find a model with whom he documents the 'typical Japanese', complete with shots of Mount Fuji. He falls in love with the model and, over the next few years, returns of Japan as often as possible. He is in ruins, he neglects his friends, he feels disillusioned in the Netherlands. And when they meet for the last time and prepare to repeat the photo session at Mount Fuji, it is as if time as stood still—nothing seems to have changed, yet everything has. Mokusei! is not only a lyrical exploration of the beauty of Japan and the intensity of love but also a meditation on the very nature of time.

In 's Nachts komen de vossen dwaalt Cees Nooteboom naar mensen en gebeurtenissen uit het verleden: weg van de waan van de dag, weg van de levenden. Er is een prachtige lijn te ontdekken in het schrijverschap van Nooteboom. Waar in zijn debuutroman Philip en de anderen de jonge auteur op zoek ging naar de gebeurtenissen en stof zocht voor zijn schrijverschap, blikt hij nu terug en weet hij ontmoetingen, personen en gebeurtenissen te verweven tot ragfijne, maar ook spannende verhalen.

Junak Notebomovog romana Sledeća priča zaspao je u hotelskoj sobi u Amsterdamu, a probudio se u hotelskoj sobi u Lisabonu.
Suočen sa događajem koji mu je promenio život, Notebomov junak na uzbudljiv način govori o stvarnosti i ljubavi, politici i kulturi, praznini i strasti svog i našeg vremena.
Sledeća priča je nesvakidašnja i otrežnjujuća knjiga u kojoj se iznutra preispituje savremena evropska kultura i u kojoj se na pronicljiv i uzbudljiv način govori o osnovnim elementima svakodnevnog života: od ljubavi do ljubomore, od strasti do očaja, od nežnosti do kazne, od prijateljstva do iskupljenja, od dosade do iskušenja, od potrebe za avanturističkim prevazilaženjem zadatog životnog kruga do predavanja rutini ili nužnosti.
Sledeća priča je roman o jednoj neobičnoj nekadašnjoj ljubavi koja se odigrala između Amsterdama i Lisabona. Svoje finale ova ukrštena ljubavna priča doživljava na plovidbi od Lisabona do Brazila i duž Amazona.
Sledeća priča je knjiga o ljubavi i tajni.
Jedan od najčitanijih i najprevođenijih romana velikog svetskog pisca i svetskog putnika.

Novi roman velikog holanskog pisca i svetskog putnika, jednog od najvećih savremenih evropskih pisaca.
Priča o slučajnom susretu dvoje nekadašnjih ljubavnika, o Evropi i Australiji, o nedokučivom svetu australijskih Aboridžina, kao i o neobičnom Projektu Anđeo u čast velikog engleskog pesnika iz osamnaestog veka Džona Miltona i njegovog dela Izgubljeni raj.
Glavna tema romana je ljubav koja je u svim kombinacijama nemoguća i neostvariva jer se ne može izbeći sveopšti nesporazum u modernom vremenu i prostoru. Notebomovi junaci istražuju ljubav i tragaju za njom kao za velikim smislom i izazovom vlastitog života.
Izgubljeni raj je izuzetna priča o privatnim dramama našeg vremena, o nemirima koji ispunjavaju savremenog čoveka prisiljavajući ga da neprestano luta od mesta do mesta, od grada do grada, od kontinenta do kontinenta, od jedne do druge osobe, tražeći prizor ili trenutak izgubljenog raja u vlastitom životu. Notebom na vrhunski način prikazuje tu potragu za smislom i utehom.
Evropska kritika je ovaj Notebomov roman ocenila kao „predivnu knjigu, elokventnu, majstorski sazdanu, sa angažovanim likovima i događajima“ i kao delo koje „dotiče i duboke ideje i površnost modernog života“.
Notebom je pisac čija se dela porede s Kalvinom, Nabokovom, Kunderom…

The winner of numerous literary awards including the Anne Frank Prize and Goethe Prize, Cees Nooteboom, novelist, poet and journalist, “is a careful prose stylist of a notably philosophical bent.” (J.M. Coetzee, The New York Review of Books)

In Roads to Berlin, Nooteboom’s reportage, “from a 1963 Khrushchev rally in East Berlin to the tearing down of the Palast der Republik, brilliantly captures the intensity of the capital and its ‘associated layers of memory,’” The Economist said. The book maps the changing landscape of post-World-War-II Germany, from the period before the fall of the Berlin Wall to the present. Written and updated over the course of several decades, an eyewitness account of the pivotal events of 1989 gives way to a perceptive appreciation of its difficult passage to reunification. Nooteboom’s writings on politics, people, architecture, and culture are as digressive as they are eloquent; his innate curiosity takes him through the landscapes of Heine and Goethe, steeped in Romanticism and mythology, and to Germany’s baroque cities. With an outsider’s objectivity he has crafted an intimate portrait of the country to its present day.

'One of the great books about Spain' - Tristan Garel-Jones, Observer
A many-tangented pilgrimage through ten centuries of Spain's history, its politics, its art, literature and architecture, its climate and its people, in which Nooteboom unlocks doors to an undiscovered Spain and reveals his obsession for a country he has come to know intimately over the course of forty years.

Set in the cities and islands of the Mediterranean, and linked thematically, the eight stories in The Foxes Come at Night read more like a novel, a meditation on memory, life and death. Their protagonists collect and reconstruct fragments of lives lived intensely, and now lost, crystallized in memory or in the detail of a photograph. And yet the tone of these stories is far from pessimistic: it seems that death is nothing to be afraid of.

A morose provincial inspector of roads in Aragon settles down to write the fable of the Snow Queen. The Netherlands has now been stretched into a vast country with Northern flatlands and hazardous Alpine ranges in the south. Kai and Lucia are circus illusionists, and when Kai is kidnapped, Lucia must rescue him from the Snow Queen's palace.
In the Dutch Mountains is an elegantly constructed story within a story, laced with the wit that characterises the work of this outstanding European writer.

One morning Herman Mussert wakes up in a hotel room in Lisbon, where twenty years previously he slept with another man’s wife. Yet he is quite certain that the night before he went to sleep as normal in his house in Amsterdam. And so Herman begins a physical journey and a metaphysical adventure, which will re-route him via past loves, through the pangs and pleasures of memory, and to the very heart of that crucial question: ‘who am I?’.

Небольшой роман (по нашим представлениям — повесть) Нотебоома «Следующая история», наделал в 1993 году на Франкфуртской книжной ярмарке много шума. Нотебоома принялись переводить едва ли не на все европейские языки, тем временем как в родном его отечестве обрушившуюся на писателя славу, по сути поднимавшую престиж и всей нидерландской литературы, встречали либо недоуменным пожатием плеч, либо плохо скрываемым раздражением.
Этот роман похож на мозаику из аллюзий и мотивов, ключевых для творчества писателя. Практически каждый образ повести этимологически восходит к прежним книгам Нотебоома, насыщающего эти образы на каждом новом витке творческой спирали новыми оттеночными смыслами.
